A PEAK INTO SHORELY CHIC

I realized I haven't posted pics from  my own abode in quite some time, so I thought this morning while I was putzing around would be a good time to take some pics.

Brian and I are currently living in the in-law suite of my parents' home in Connecticut while we save money and look for our perfect home (by the beach) which in our area can be pretty costly. We made the decision to wait until we find what's just right for us and we are very lucky to have this little pad to call home for this time.

Jack loves it because his adoring grandparents are right next door and they spoil him rotten with new treats just about every day. He knows when his grandma comes and goes and darts over across the yard for a bone - it's sweet really.

So anyways, here are a couple pics of my favorite little places and things. I just started decorating for the holidays so you'll see home festivity happening around...


 


I love this little Madonna and Child brought back from my time Florence - reminds me of one of my favorite artists, Della Robia

a little start...

Soooo there you have it, it's not as chic as the homes I post on here, but it serves its purpose for now, we're happy, and one day (hopefully soon) I'll have a Shorely Chic blog-worthy abode!!
